When we returned to the weeping, there was a great celebration and they planned to set up a festival called the "Expeditionary Festival" to sing the praises of another of my glorious deeds.

I laughed and told them that there was no need, that a person like me did not like this kind of lively activity. Fame and fortune are like floating clouds to me, and if I am very enthusiastic about it, it will inevitably damage my reputation for indifference to fame and fortune.

They were stubborn and insisted on celebrating, and I turned them down a second time.

They petitioned again, but I still refused, and then they gave up and left the church backwards.

I hurriedly said, "Give me back!" ”

The petitioner was stunned and said, "Archbishop, what else is the matter?" ”

I winked at him, and he asked, "Archbishop, are you uncomfortable with your eyes?" ”

When will these fools learn to figure out what they want? I'm actually quite willing to hold a celebration, not to mention that this celebration is to commemorate my deeds, which really makes me excited and excited. But what? I can't seem to be very wanted, very wanted, that would make me seem like I'm not so.... Indifferent to fame and fortune.

Therefore, if I refuse to refuse, they must persist in asking, twice if it doesn't work once, and three times if it doesn't work twice, until I cry and grab the earth, and force each other to die, so that I can reluctantly and reluctantly agree. In this way, it shows the love of the people of my subjects, and also shows that I love the people like a son and are considerate of the people's will.

I coughed and said, "I still don't want to about that celebration, I don't want to. ”

The petitioners said: "Archbishop, you are such a quiet and elegant man. ”

I said, "But then, since you have begged me so sincerely, I can't help but give you face, in these last days, human dignity is the most precious, and if you are willing to let go of your dignity, how can I not be sympathetic to the feelings of the people?" ”

The leader of the petitioners suddenly came to his senses and said, "So? Did you say yes? ”

I sighed: "I am a human being, I am happy with the joy of the world first, and I am worried about the world after the world, and you are not unaware.... However, the world is corrupt, the people are suffering, it is rare to have such a happy thing, how can I bear to refuse everyone's kindness and sweep away everyone's interest? ”

Kara, who was on the side, burst out laughing, and I realized that my poem was reversed, which made me really embarrassed.

The petitioner said: "The archbishop is wise! He took out the petition and handed it to me, and I didn't read it, but with a stroke of his pen, he signed it. The petitioner exclaimed: "The word bishop is really beautiful in a hundred years. ”

I smiled kindly and plainly, modestly and honestly, and told him, "Even if what you say is true, don't go around preaching, I'm a low-key and reserved person." "I have that self-knowledge, and my handwriting is really good-looking, because everyone I meet says that to me.

Carla secretly laughed, "Dad, your words are the same as those of a dog." ”

This unfilial girl, she will definitely be very rebellious in the future, I have to keep an eye on her, lest she come to see any poor boy who has no interest in the future, and if he does not marry, I will lose both my people and money.

The petitioners stepped back contentedly, and Kara shouted, "Wait, Mst! "So the petitioner's name is Mst? I'm really not very good at remembering the names of small people, who made me a big man.

Mster was stunned and said, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Carla said, "You requested a million dollars budget for the celebration? Tell me, how is this budget used? ”

Mster replied, "We'll have people hurry up and make the red ribbon that symbolizes Cain, and hang it in the Cain Church, the Temple Academy, the Aether Shopping Street, and the Refuge Square, which will cost about 100,000 gold dollars..."

Kara shook her head and said, "According to the market price of the ribbon, even if you use a genuine silk scarf to cover the sky in these places, it won't cost 50,000 gold yuan!" ”

Mster's face changed color, and he hurriedly said, "Yes, but fifty thousand gold dollars are a little nervous, and..."

Kara wrenched his fingers and calculated: "Even if a big celebration is held, according to the standard of the black coffin, 100,000 gold yuan can decorate the city hall square very beautifully, and 300,000 gold yuan can make everyone cry a full meal, and it is the kind that needs to be rescued, plus labor costs, a total of 500,000 gold yuan can be done, you tell me, where is the remaining 500,000?" ”

Mster hurriedly said: "Miss, you don't know the market at all. ”

Kara took out a folder from her school bag, there was a piece of paper in it, and she said: "This is the current price list of Crying, it was compiled for me by a friend and sister of mine in the city hall, Dad, you can see, the population of the whole Crying is about 2,600, what is the concept of spending 100 gold yuan per person to eat?" ”

I pretended to look at it for a while, but I didn't have to look at it at all, my daughter must be right, if not right, in front of a little person like Mster.

The ancients said: Referring to a deer as a horse, yes is also.

Mster exclaimed, "Miss, what do you mean by that?" Are you accusing me of deceiving the archbishop? You're still young, and you don't understand many things...."

How dare he contradict my daughter in front of me?

I said slowly, "Mt, what is your position?" ”

Mster shuddered and said, "I am...."

"He is a native of the village of Wai, the pastor of the church's auditorium, and he has been in charge of organizing the festivals for two years, and in the two years, he has organized two 'Ajou festivals,' one Cain's birthday, three times..."

She reported every festival that Mster had handled, and even listed the funds and actual expenses of the application, and I was more and more amazed, for the first time I felt that I was an idiot before Kara, and many people had called me an idiot, the most frequent of which was Lamia, but this time I had to admit that I was intellectually better than Kara.... Slightly less than that.

I said in a gloomy tone, "So, Mster is going to spend the money of the town hall?" ”

Carla smiled, "He has a three-story building in Vault Square, and the market price of this building is a million gold dollars, and he rented it to twelve people to make more money. However, he is not smart, because the title deed of this building is in his own name and is easy to trace. ”

I smiled and said, "These simple villagers in Howling Village would not have used such elaborate means. ”

Carla sighed, "yes, these moths are much easier to deal with than those slippery heads sent by the Black Coffin. And what's the most exaggerated, you know? He told everyone in the neighborhood that he had made a fortune and that he was selfish and did not give any benefit to other relatives and friends! Haha, he is not popular with the people at all, everyone knows that he is greedy, and everyone wishes that he is unlucky. ”

Mster hurriedly fell to his knees and said, "Archbishop, I have always served the Church, for you, for Cain, and for all of this, and I have done my best, and everyone can see this.... Please also be clear. ”

I asked, "Kara, my dear daughter, how do you think this person should be punished?" ”

"First of all, remove him from his post," Carla said. Second, put him in imprison. Then, raid his house and confiscate his ill-gotten gains. ”

Mst looked at his fellow petitioners on either side, and they immediately fell to their knees, weeping bitterly, and Mst cried out: "This is my son and daughter, my lord, you promised to give us the happiness of the weeping village, and now you will deprive us of this happiness with your own hands?" Have mercy on us, don't leave them homeless, let them lose their smiles. ”

I said, "The happiness I promise must be created by your own hands, and I am just giving you a chance to win happiness." Is it fair that if you encroach too much on your interests, you will harm the happiness of others? ”

Mster said, "I... I didn't know you were so angry, I didn't know you were doing it wrong, but now I do, I understand, you taught me and my family a vivid lesson, we will never dare to go against your will, your laws, your rule.

I... I was the first to advocate for you, much earlier than the Brams and Miandorians! You've done this to the people of Crying Village, and it's going to chill them. ”

"You're threatening me with the entire Howling Village? What a scum! Have you forgotten how I treated those who betrayed? ”

"You have the best heart, and you are the wisest," Mster said. You know, you know that there is all sorts of unpleasantness between our weepers, the Brams and the Miandor, and the newcomers. What would the weepers think if you made me, a weeper who had worked hard and faithfully for you, end up destitute and penniless?

They will think that you are biased, and that you have bestowed more of your promises on Bram and Miandor than on us, your earliest followers. You will disappoint everyone, and you will make them sad and uneasy. ”

The inhabitants of the weeping community are mainly composed of three groups, the earliest weeping villagers, the later Mianduo people, and later the Bram people, who were able to live in harmony at first, but gradually the days improved, and when I distributed the benefits, the three groups would quarrel with each other, and no one would obey the other. For example, who should hold the position of market management, the three parties are in constant dispute, and all conspiracies and tactics are used.

I was advised to force the three groups to intermarry, but in just a few years, it didn't make much difference, and because the aborigines of the village considered themselves superior, and the customs and habits of the three groups were completely different, there were often rumors of brides being abused after marrying outside.

I exclaimed, "You can't represent all the people in the Crying Village!" They're honest and hardworking, not like you bastard! ”

With a serious expression, like a fair and merciless goddess of arbitration, Carla said, "I'm not done yet. In addition to the above, Mster, you have taken advantage of the people's faith in Cain, and the evidence is conclusive, and you have attempted to deceive the archbishop, and you deserve to be burned at the stake according to religious law. ”

I asked, "Burning at the stake?" ”

Stunned, Mt. Mster said, "Burn at the stake? ”

Kara nodded, "Yes, burn at the stake." ”

I thought of Neri, and I remembered the means of the scepter, Kara was very young, but she looked very much like the scepter, and it was very similar in style. She made me understand how much difference there is between being a good person and being a good ruler.

I said to the temple guards, "Deliver Mster to the trial court, and if the evidence is conclusive, burn at the stake in public." ”
